Firefall at Energy Made Visible

Carrara Bianco marble, 2008, 110h x 32w x 31d cm

An early marble sculpture, directly carved from Carrara Bianco marble without a model. Studio Sem where I work in Pietrasanta is at the foothills of the Apuan Alps and, although not as high as the Swiss Alps, there are some dramatic walks to be had. I carved the marble with memories of walking in the Swiss Alps – the sensation of ice burning like fire. The exciting fear of walking close to an edge was always present at the glacier walks. (2007)
